Our pregnancy ultrasound scans
We offer pregnancy scans from 6 weeks onwards. The ultrasound that’s right for you will depend on how many weeks pregnant you are and what needs to be checked.
Early pregnancy scan (6–10 weeks)
An early pregnancy scan can confirm your pregnancy, check for a heartbeat and help estimate how many weeks pregnant you are. It can also provide important information if you’re experiencing pain or bleeding.
Depending on how early you are in your pregnancy, the ultrasound may be carried out through your abdomen or as a transvaginal scan, which uses a small ultrasound probe placed gently inside the vagina.
Nuchal translucency scan (11–13+6 weeks)
A nuchal translucency scan measures the fluid at the back of your baby’s neck. It can form part of screening used to estimate the chance of certain chromosomal conditions, including Down’s syndrome.
Non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT), which uses a blood sample to screen for certain chromosomal conditions, may also be available.
Anomaly scan (20–24 weeks)
This detailed ultrasound looks closely at your baby’s anatomy and development. It also checks the position of the placenta and the amount of amniotic fluid (the fluid surrounding your baby in the womb).
Cervical scan (preterm risk assessment)
A cervical scan measures the length of your cervix to help assess your risk of giving birth prematurely. It may be recommended based on your pregnancy history or other individual risk factors.
The examination is usually carried out as a transvaginal ultrasound to provide a clear view of the cervix.
Growth and wellbeing scan (from 28 weeks)
A growth and wellbeing scan checks how your baby is developing later in pregnancy. It can assess growth and position, as well as the amount of amniotic fluid around your baby. Doppler ultrasound (a type of ultrasound that measures blood flow) may also be used.
3D pregnancy scan
A 3D pregnancy scan creates detailed still images of your baby, giving you a clearer view of features such as their face and body shape. These scans are usually carried out between 26 and 32 weeks, when there’s often enough amniotic fluid around your baby to produce a clearer image.
A 3D scan can be a special way to see your baby in more detail during pregnancy, alongside the medical checks included in your appointment.
4D pregnancy scan
A 4D pregnancy scan shows live moving images of your baby in the womb, rather than a still picture. You may be able to see movements such as stretching or yawning as they happen.
At Grosvenor Gardens Healthcare, 4D imaging may be available as part of a growth or wellbeing scan, giving you the opportunity to see your baby move.
